Pump system with pinch valve for fluid management in surgical procedures and method of operation thereof

A pump system including an outflow pump, the pump system comprising:

• a stationary housing defining an internal volume and a front face outside the internal volume extending in a first direction and a second direction transverse to the first direction;
• the stationary housing including at least one tube support outside the internal volume extending outwardly from the front face for aligning and supporting a first tube and a second tube;
• at least one pinch member being movable relative to the at least one tube support;
• a power actuator disposed in the internal volume and operably coupled to the at least one pinch member, the power actuator configured to have three orientations that define:
• a first arrangement of the at least one pinch member relative to the at least one tube support configured to pinch closed the first tube,
• a second arrangement of the at least one pinch member relative to the at least one tube support configured to pinch closed the second tube, and
• a third arrangement of the at least one pinch member relative to the at least one tube support configured to pinch closed neither the first tube nor the second tube.
